Be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.
Joshua 1:9
Words: Fanny Crosby, 1890.
Music: George C. Stebbins (🔊 pdf nwc).
Look up! look up! ye weary ones,
Whose skies are veiled in night;
For He who knows the path you tread
Will yet restore the light;
Look up! and hail the dawning
Of hope’s triumphant morning.
Refrain
Behold Him! behold Him!
Your Savior lives today;
Behold Him! behold Him!
The clouds have rolled away.
The gifts you bring with loving hand
Your Lord will not disown!
Their odors sweet to Heav’n shall rise
Like incense round His throne;
Look up! and hail the dawning
Of joy’s transcendent morning.
Refrain
Rejoice! the grave is overcome,
And lo! the angels sing;
The grandest triumph ever known
Has come thro’ Christ our king;
All Heav’n proclaims the dawning
Of love’s all glorious morning.
